23. Ohio State (16-5) – D'Angelo Russell was unstoppable in the first half against Indiana. The Buckeyes have another big home game with Maryland Thursday.

24. Indiana (15-5) – The Hoosiers will try to avoid their first two-game losing streak at Purdue Wednesday – and they lost by 18 at West Lafayette last season. They'll have to win to hold their first appearance on my ballot.

25. Georgia (13-5) – After losing their first two SEC games, the Bulldogs have won four in a row. Are they the second-best team in the league? Maybe.
